Here's our to do list lol
Cosmic purple carrots- they have a bright purple skin with a yellowish orange flesh. Spicy yet sweet.
Stuttgarter onion - and old variety with good flavor
Giant noble spinach - spread to over 2'!
Elephant dill - wonderful herb that repels certain pests and enhances the flavor of certain veggies
Genovese basil - enhances the flavor of tomatoes and repels pests
Buerre De Rocquencourt - a bean that grows as a bush and a favorite of cooks!
Chives - excellent flavor enhancer and pest repellant
Dragon tongue bean - a favorite Dutch heirloom that has an incomparable flavor, pods are yellow with purple streaks! Quite popular with chefs
Purple beauty pepper - very popular pepper!
Borage herb - another excellent pest repellant
Black vernissage tomato - perfect for tasting sauces
Spaghetti squash - this one is a doozy. From the comments, we will be giving these away because they produce so much so be ready for some!!
Romanesco Italia broccoli - this one is quite crazy looking. It looks more like fractals than broccoli. A staple in northern Italy! Simply Google the name and look at how cool these things look. Due to our mild winters, we aren't sure how well this or the cauliflower will do but we are gonna give it a go!
Green macerata cauliflower - another Italian variety with a similar appearance to the romanesco broccoli
Elderberry - this one will be grown in the backyard rather than the garden. It a bush that provides elderberries which we use to make elderberry syrup. This is a great flu treatment and even scientifically documented during a flu outbreak in Panama.
Black beauty tomato - world's darkest tomato!! Some proclaim it as the best tasting tomato in the world!
Blue curled scotch kale - very hardy plant!
Spanish mammoth pepper - introduced around 1860! Disease resistant 7" long pepper that's both sweet and flavorful
St. Valery carrots - The Vilmorins of France mentioned this variety in 1885 and said it had been grown a “long time” then. A large handsome variety with bright red-orange roots; 10”-12” long & 2”-3” in diameter. Sweet & tender. Rare.
Thyme - another pest repellant
Pink Brandywine tomato - the most popular heirloom tomato! A variety from 1885 that yields 1.5lbs tomatoes !!
Diamond eggplant - we are gonna give them another go now that we have learned more.
Glory of enkhuizen cabbage - introduced in 1899 and excellent producer
Jicama - very healthy root that has numerous health benefits. It has a sweet flavor that I would say is a cross between an apple for crunchiness and a raw green bean/pepper for taste. It's also an excellent carbohydrate source without affecting insulin levels.
Phew that's it lol.
